I told you “Game On!” was going to be awesome! I can’t thank our Staff and all our Volunteers enough for all their hard work. We have an awesome team at Coastal. It was just a FUN day and everything fit together and communicated the message that it’s not “Game Over”, it’s “Game On!” A special thanks to everyone who Tailgated. You guys went above and beyond! It was definitely something that we will do again. And yes, the votes are in, but you’ll have to wait until Sunday for us to announce the winner.
– Keep inviting and bringing your friends. I love, love, love meeting your friends that you invited! This is a great series for your friends to hear that God has a wonderful plan for their lives.
– LIFE Groups began this week! And from all reports it’s been a great start! It’s still not too late to join a Group. Sign up today on our website.
– I want to thank those of you who donated “bedding stuff” and money to the LOVE CAN Help A Child need this past week. Everything has been taken care of and now has to be delievered and set up. They are going to be meeting at the church at 1pm to take the bedding & supplies to the family. They need a couple of men to help with the moving, loading, and set up. They could also use some help with childcare at the church for the children of the families who will be serving. It all should take about an hour & a half. If you are interested in serving, please call Morgan Verdery at 706-717-0029.
